of her dress showed from the dust that she
must have walked long way before getting
on the train. On reaching the platform she
gaZed timidy around and then asked ques-
tion of a bystander. He, in reply, pointed
out Capt. Waters, the chief of police. She

ply said the girl had left home eight years

The GAZETTE is now the oldest paper lr
the State, and with few exceptions the old
est in the country, and its usefulness has
been demonstrated and appreciated during
the E1eHTY.sEvzN YEARS ofits existence. IL
its columns has always been found mirror
Of passing events, and the careful chron-
cling of the history ofwhat is going on in the
world has ever been its aim. II is aIways
welcomed in tho household while in the
counting room and workshop it has become
Invaluable.
The GAZETTE has better facilities for oh
tanning news than any paper outside of the
national capital Situated as it is so close
to the great centre of news, it enjoys daily
the benefit of the Associated Press dis
patches from every part ofthe world hence
its patrons can read from its columns in the
evening what has transpired that day in
every portion of our own domain ns well as
from every part of the habitable globe
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE TO publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning pa
pers.
Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE a great desideratum with me-
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York, Baltimore, Chicago and othe,
centres.
The local department furnishes a full and
complete history of everything that occurs
and near the city, and this feature Will,
as ever, receive careful attention
Correspondence from Washington, Rich
mond and every section of theSt is pub.
lished regularly, and all events OF interest
occurring within the bounds of the Com
monwealth are to Re found in the columns
of the GAZETTE.
The GAzErrE's circulation is steadily in
creasing, especially among people who con
suit its advertising columns before purchas'
ing. That this is self-evident may be infer
red from the fact that large country edi
tion-neary as large as the daily--is sent
all over this section of country three tines
a week, and is read by thousands, most of
whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages of adj
vertising in the GAZETTE are. therefore, ap-
parent.
